Hey again everyone!

Well, today was the big day to book my flight. Yay!

Please continue to pray for me. Funds are slowly coming in, but i have faith it will all work out. My fundraiser is seeming blue but still, i think it will work out. Faith faith faith. haha. My favorite word. Pray for safety on my flights and minimal confusion. Love you all and i will miss you like crazy!

So, here's the deal...

Hey ya'll.

So, basically while I am gone I want everyone to have a place where they can read about my travels and mission work. I am SO excited to be heading out there-you have no idea! I will let you know what I know as of now and will keep you posted as I go.

My trip will start early April and I will arrive in Chennai, India. There I will meet my friend Jody-she is currently working in India. Then we will be travelling for a little less than a month close to where our mission work will start!

In May we will be working at the Kollogal Girls' Home teaching english, helping with homework and basically being a friend, sister and mentor to these children! THIS IS SO EXCITING! I am so excited to be doing something major for God-so EXCITED. I will be returning late June and will be home for about 2 weeks--then I head off to oh-so-exciting saskatchewan to work at a fishing lodge.

Things to watch out for- MY FUNDRAISER! since i need your money to get me there! haha. I am working on details and everything now. Silent auction will be had, baking and what not.. and definately a place to donate! yay!

* If you are uncomfortable with such a casual means of communication I am sorry. This is the best I can do. I love you all and I ask for your continual support in prayer before, and during my trip. Thanks a bundle!
